Speaking exclusively to Sharjah 24, Hamad Saleh Al Hammadi confirmed that "Al Qutaina 1" project offers architectural diversity, allowing beneficiaries to choose one of three design facades: local, modern, or Islamic. This is before they enter an electronic lottery to determine the location of their home within the project. The department has reinforced this approach with streamlined procedures, communicating directly with beneficiaries and inviting them to its headquarters to receive keys and complete transactions quickly and efficiently, embodying its commitment to facilitating government services.
Safe and comfortable housing
The Head of the Media Department pointed to the technical support provided by the department to beneficiaries. The Planning and Survey Department team provided detailed maps of each home, while a field follow-up team was formed to visit families after receipt and inspect the homes to ensure their readiness for safe and comfortable housing. The project is the first of several phases embodying institutional integration that seeks to improve the quality of residential life through designs that meet families' needs while preserving their privacy.
Al Hammadi added that the delivery of the first phase reflects the project's rapid completion and the department's commitment to the planned timeline. He noted that subsequent phases will witness further improvements and design options, meeting citizens' aspirations and enhancing the level of housing services in the emirate.
Integrated quality of life
Al Hammadi concluded his statement by emphasising that the Sharjah Housing Department will continue to work on delivering the next phases according to the highest construction and technical standards, ensuring the sustainability of housing and promoting family stability. This translates the vision of His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah to build a community that enjoys an integrated quality of life.
